Cotton is a popular choice because it’s breathable, durable, and gets softer with each wash. Bamboo is known for being lightweight, hypoallergenic, and moisture-wicking. And finally, flannelette is a warm and cosy option that's ideal for colder months.

This remarkable fabric holds endless possibilities thanks to the wonders of weaving. The particular way each type of cotton fabric is woven is the secret ingredient that determines its finish, feel, drape and touch. And don’t worry, there’s no need to fret about which is “superior”, no one weave is better than another, it’s all about finding the feel that suits your fancy.

Sateen Weave: Known for its lustrous and smooth finish, sateen weave creates a silky fabric with a subtle sheen, offering a clean finish and elegant drape

Percale Weave: Renowned for its crisp touch, the percale weave produces a lightweight and breathable fabric, perfect for warm weather (or hot sleepers), with a matte appearance and soft, smooth texture

Twill Weave: Distinguished by its diagonal weave and durable construction, the twill weave creates a strong and resilient fabric with a soft and supple feel, making it ideal for bedding that balances both comfort and longevity

Let’s get real here – not all sheets are created equal. If you’ve ever had the frustrating experience of fitted sheets popping off your bed, you know what we’re talking about. And if you’ve got a plush mattress, you know it can be even harder to find a sheet that actually stays put.

It all comes down to the height of your mattress. If you have a standard mattress, which is usually around 30cm thick, regular sheets will work just fine. However, if you have a thicker mattress, or a pillow top (much more common these days), something that measures more than 40cm total, you’ll want to opt for deep sheets, which have walls that are 50cm deep, to ensure a snug and secure fit.

Thread count refers to the number of threads per square inch. Traditionally, higher thread count mean softer, better quality sheets. But here’s the catch: thread count isn’t the only factor in quality or handfeel these days. Quality fibres and a well-executed weave can create a lower thread count fabric that feels luxuriously soft and smooth. So don’t get too hung up on thread count alone.

When choosing bedding, consider the overall fabric quality. Look at the fibre type, weave pattern and finish. It’s all about personal preference and finding what feels right for you. So, you can sleep soundly knowing that thread count is just part of the sheet bedtime story.
